Registration Information and Forms


The Children's Ministry mission is to lay spiritual foundations for future generations. Our vision is to reach children and their families for Christ.

Our team wants to work "Hand in Hand" with parents to give children the building blocks of faith that will lead them to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, as their Savior, Lord, and Friend. What an awesome privilege and responsibility! One of eternal significance.

We want all children to know how precious they are in God's sight; how much He loves them; how He reaches out to them through His Son, Jesus; how children can reach up to God through Christ; and how children can reach out to others who need to know God's love.

Our desire is to help children develop mentally, physically, spiritually, and socially, as Jesus did when He was a child. (Luke 2:52). The Children's Ministry provides biblical teaching, weekly activities and special events for children, birth through fifth grade, to help accomplish this life-long adventure.
